An ideal gas in a piston cylinder arrangement is to be taken from a temperature of

500 {~K}

to a temperature of

600 {~K}

. Which of the thermodynamic process given in options should be used so that the final state of

600 {~K}

is achieved using a minimum energy input from outside?

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

Isochoric

Option C (Isochoric) is correct because at constant volume, all the heat added goes into increasing the internal energy and thus the temperature, requiring the least energy input.
